Woman reports physical assault She called police about attempted strangulation by father of her child From IDS reports

A woman called police and claimed she had been assaulted by the father of her child and that he had attempted to strangle her. The Bloomington Police Department received the call at approximately 10:30 a.m. Monday about a domestic battery at 1514 W. 12th St., BPD Capt. Steve Kellams said. The father, Satish Brown, was asked reluctantly by the mother to watch the child for a period of time Monday. She told police she did not want him to watch her child as he was transient. She found someone to watch her SEE ASSAULT, PAGE 6

From IDS reports By Dominick Jean

Bloomington Police Department Officer Kiley Jarrett was punched in the face by a man named Martez Bess while investigating a complaint Monday night. She received a black eye and was taken to the hospital for X-rays. Jarrett was responding to a call to check on a disturbance at 703 W. Gourley Pike. An unknown woman reported a verbal argument with Bess and said Bess had caused damage in her apartment. BPD took down a report and told her to call again if there was another issue. BPD received another call around 11 p.m. from the same woman who said Bess had kicked in her door. When police arrived, Bess was exiting the apartment and yelling at the

Technology is constantly changing, and real-time data is vital to law enforcement agencies like the Bloomington Police Department, Capt. Steve Kellams said. “You’ve got to have real-time data and you’ve got to have it at your fingertips,” Kellams said. To get that real-time data, BPD maintains technology-heavy systems, both at its station as well as in its patrol cars. Each car is equipped with a laptop and a system called Street Smart, which shows the location of calls and officers. BPD was the second police department in the country to use this system, following the Tampa Police Department in Florida. At first, Street Smart was designed to

be the “officer’s notebook,” Kellams said. It allows officers to communicate and report on developments in real time with other officers through blogs. Officers can also check through bulletins and alerts if they believe they have a suspect nearby or in front of them. BPD was one of the first police departments in the country to use several other cutting-edge technologies. The department began using body cameras on its officers a year before the shooting of Michael Brown in Ferguson, Missouri. After that incident, police departments began to use body cameras more. As a result of BPD’s early adoption, Chief Michael Diekhoff was asked to help create national guidelines for their use. Because of the close partnership between BPD and the IU Police DepartSEE TECH, PAGE 6

MEN’S SOCCER

Underclassmen pushing to find game time By Josh Eastern jeastern@umail.iu.edu | @JoshEastern

When looking at the 2016 Hoosiers, there is one thing that jumps out: the depth of this team. IU comes into this season with high expectations as IU Coach Todd Yeagley has been to the NCAA Tournament in every season he has been head coach in Bloomington. They come in ranked No. 13 and have highprofile matches on their schedule. But there is no more Femi Hollinger-Janzen, IU’s leading goal scorer in 2015. There is no Matt Foldesy, who started in every game. There is no graduate transfer Ben Maurey or forward Kyle Sparks. They all graduated, which means others are now required to step up to fill those roles. The question is, who is filling in SEE SOCCER, PAGE 6

Sophomore midfielder Rees Wedderburn chases down an Oakland player during IU’s exhibition game last Thursday.

Following the Orlando, Florida, shootings in June, IU Police Department Deputy Chief Doug Johnson called members of the IU LGBT and Muslim communities to check in with them. “We have such a wonderfully diverse campus,” Johnson said. “But the challenge is, when you have a population that large and diverse, how do we make sure that we are communicating with everyone and communicating effectively?” The goal is to ensure all students are comfortable sharing information and interacting with the IUPD, Johnson said. While international and minority students may not

have full-time IUPD liaison officers assigned to their communities, they have an entire police force dedicated to their safety. Rendy Schrader, Office of International Services director of student and scholar advising, and Johnson said the greatest challenge with international students is cultural differences, which require students to be taught about Indiana laws and customs and for officers to be trained to be sensitive to other cultures. In some countries, Johnson said, the public’s relationship to police is more strained than in the United States. In some places, people leave doors unlocked and don’t worry

Student ethics board removed from hearings From IDS reports

The student-run ethics board that provided input when student groups broke IU rules will no longer be allowed to help administrators decide how to discipline campus organizations. The board did not have the power to decide organizations’ punishments, but

rather made recommendations to administrators. Director of Student Life and Learning Steve Veldkamp said in an email the decision to remove the board from the process was made during the summer during a review of Student Life and Learning’s judicial process. “(The board was re-

moved) because there is a national best practice for organizational conduct cases, which includes trained professional staff to ensure consistency, prevent bias in the decision making process, and retaliation against students involved in the process,” Veldkamp said in the email. Since the fall of 2011,

only greek organizations have faced discipline from the University, according to documents on Student Life and Learning’s website. When a group violates University rules, it faces disciplinary actions ranging from disciplinary probation — essentially, a warning — up to full suspension. One explanation for the

removal could be because the board could potentially become biased if a member were also part of the organization being disciplined. The individual could potentially influence the board to recommend lesser sanctions against the group. Veldkamp said although the board, which comprises up to 15 students, will no

longer help administrators with organizations’ hearings, it will not be totally disbanded. “We are in the process of repurposing the student board and creating opportunities for those students to continue working with us,” Veldkamp said. Nyssa Kruse

A group of students enjoys their deli lunches Tuesday afternoon in Edmondson Dining Hall.

Collins’ Edmondson Dining hall stops serving lunch buffet By Laurel Demkovich lfdemkov@indiana.edu @laureldemkovich

The Edmondson Dining Hall at Collins has stopped serving its traditional lunch buffet. Sandy Porter, general manager of the Edmondson Dining Hall, said during the past couple years, fewer and fewer students were eating the lunch buffet. “It didn’t seem like we were serving the best amount of people,” Porter said. Porter decided to sit down with students and find a better way to serve them. She said many students gave them feasible options for different foods Collins can serve instead. Porter said they brain-

stormed with these students about what new options they would like to see added to the menu. Each menu will also have rotating specials added every once in a while. Although the buffet is no longer in service, Collins still serves lunch through the grill and the deli. Porter said they have added new items to both menus. For Sandra Fowler, director of dining at RPS, a lack of students can affect the freshness of the food. “It’s very difficult to keep that entrée looking fresh when you don’t have the traffic,” Fowler said. The previous lunch buffet offered an entrée with sides, usually fruit or vegetables. The grill has made-to-

order breakfast and lunch, including sandwiches, burgers, fries, chicken strips and calzones. The deli offers paninis, coffee, bagels, donuts and many grab-and-go items. There is also a salad bar, which Porter said has new items this year, and a sandwich topping bar. The lunch buffet may be closed, but the traditional dinner buffet is still open. Porter said they see high numbers of students eating at the dinner buffet. Porter is always looking for new suggestions and concerns from students, she said. “We don’t want students to get tired,” Porter said. “We want to change our menu based on the trends of what students want.”

IU sociologists attended the 111th annual meeting of the American Sociological Association in Seattle this week. During the meeting, Jessica Calarco, assistant professor of sociology, Emma Cohen, a doctoral candidate in sociology, and Natasha Quadlin, a doctoral student in sociology, presented their research findings. Calarco researched behavior in education. Behaviors are closely correlated with school outcomes, according to an Aug. 23 press release. Her study is called “Class Act: How Teachers Translate Students’ Non-Cognitive Skills Into Social Class Inequalities in School.” It investigates the possibilities of teachers’ biases against less privileged students. She looked at how students’ problem-solving behaviors vary among social classes, according to the release. Calarco found teachers set middle-class expectations by expecting students to voice their needs, conveying expectations in ambiguous ways or granting middle-class students’ requests, despite

teachers’ wanting to say no. These inequalities result from teachers’ subconscious biases or time constraints and parents’ pressure. Cohen researched how interactions differ between faculty and male and female college students, the first study to look at gender differences in terms of interactions between students and faculty, according to the release. Cohen found women discuss grades, assignments and career plans more than men. Men work on activities other than coursework, such as committees and orientation, more than women. “Freshmen men are also significantly more likely to plan to work on research with faculty, and senior men are significantly more likely to have actually done this,” she said in the release. Women see professors as guides for course requirements and future plans while men see them as mentors and colleagues. Quadlin researched how Americans favor gender roles for heterosexual and samesex couples. Qaudlin’s research, described in a paper titled “Making Money, Doing Gender, or Being Essentialist? Partner Characteristics and

Americans’ Attitudes Toward Housework,” determined which characteristics shape Americans’ ideas about married couples and how they divide household labor, according to the release. The information was gathered in a survey of more than 1,000 adults in 2015. “Nearly three-quarters of our respondents thought that the female partners in heterosexual couples should be responsible for cooking, doing laundry, cleaning the house and buying groceries,” Quadlin said in the release. Almost 90 percent said they thought heterosexual men should be in charge of car repair and outdoor chores. Participants said women in heterosexual relationships should handle most childcare tasks. More than half of the respondents said the more feminine partner in a same-sex couple should partake in childcare tasks. “Even in same-sex couples, where there are not sex differences between partners, people use gender differences as a way to approximate sex differences,” Quadlin said.

Tom Crean to speak at annual Man Up event By Katelyn Haas haask@indiana.edu @khaas96

The Boys & Girls Clubs are not giving up on chivalry yet. The Boys & Girls Clubs of Bloomington will welcome IU men’s basketball coach Tom Crean to speak at the annual Man Up to Make a Difference fundraising event from 6-8 p.m. Thursday at the Lincoln Street Club gymnasium. “It’s another very positive tool and opportunity to help young people have a blueprint and real life examples of what becoming a young adult to an adult should look like,” Crean said. The clubs provide opportunities for kids through sports or other extra-curricular activities. The program even provides transportation to help parents. The event raises funds to support the three local clubs, located on Lincoln Street, in the Crestmont community and in Ellettsville, as well as their male mentoring program, Passport to Manhood. Passport to Manhood is a 14-session program for boys ages 12-17, concentrating on shaping young men through interactive activities. It focuses on addressing issues that young men face, including dealing with conflict, relationships and self-esteem.

Dennis Laffoon, a member of the Boys & Girls Club board of directors and Passport to Manhood mentor, said the program encourages personal responsibility. He said it teaches young men how to shake hands, tie a tie, make eye-to-eye contact and take responsibility for their actions. He called it a constant test. The program focuses on teaching young men what it means to be leaders in their community. Traits like discipline and good decision making are worked on. Laffoon said the young men will participate in Man Up to Make a Difference to share their program’s message and serve at the event. “Because the proceeds go directly to the Passport program, we’d like the kids to have some sort of opportunity to serve and support.” Laffoon said. “See how much people care about the club and what it sponsors.” Amy Swain, fundraising events coordinator at the Boys & Girls Clubs of Bloomington, said the event raises visibility of the Passport program. “Passport is one of those things that for a lot of our families with single parents, with single mothers. It kind of fills that gap.” Swain said. “We

have volunteers at the club as well, but this is specifically targeted to get these young men to think about their careers, respecting authority and conflict resolution.” This year, Crean will give opening remarks at the event and talk about topics such as mentoring. The event will provide dinner and have a live auction, with items including a 2016 Little 500 bicycle and an IU Basketball package of two court-side tickets for IU vs. UNC, among other IU basketball items. Crean said the event is important because every person should feel a responsibility to help young men and women reach for great lengths in our community. To attend the event, contact the Boys & Girls Clubs of Bloomington directly via phone or their website. Laffoon will speak about the Passport program at the event, recognizing the boys and explaining the program’s declaration, or creed. “It really does make a difference, seeing these boys with their families, having moms say thank you for spending time with my boy.” Laffoon said. “The opportunity to plant a seed, you never know what’s going to stick, COURTESY PHOTO but just taking that opportu- The Man Up to Make a Difference event allows boys to learn a variety of life lessons from chivalry to tying a nity is important.” tie.

Crowley chosen as city economic development director By Melanie Metzman mmetzman@indiana.edu @melanie_metzman

Alex Crowley has been named the new director of economic and sustainable development for Bloomington, Mayor John Hamilton announced Tuesday. Crowley will replace Interim Director Linda Williamson beginning Aug. 29. Most recently, Crowley was the founder and managing director of Excello

Solutions, a consulting business. Prior to this he served Alex as vice Crowley president of business operations for Insight Communications. These job experiences are part of what made Crowley an attractive candidate for the director position, Deputy Mayor Mick

Renneisen said. “Having worked closely with many types of businesses in his consulting and corporate roles, he brings an understanding of what businesses need to be successful,” Hamilton said. “I look forward to him applying that knowledge to benefit Bloomington’s economy.” One of Crowley’s duties as director will be attracting new businesses to Bloomington. Bloomington attracts

businesses with an international focus due to IU, Renneisen said. Crowley has traveled extensively as a part of his previous position at Ogilvy & Mather, a marketing and advertising firm in New York City. Crowley’s international work experience will be an asset to the community, Renneisen said. Crowley will also be working on developing the 12-acre Bloomington Technology Park.

Renneisen said the city purchased the land to redevelop for start-up businesses; however, not much progress has been made yet. “Alex will be charged with taking it from a bunch of grass with nothing on it to a full blown tech park,” Renneisen said. There are 65 acres at the Bloomington Technology Park, Renneisen said. However, what happens with the core 12 acres will dictate development of the rest of the

space. Renneisen said Crowley is a bright guy with excellent business background and international exposure. Crowley said he recognizes the opportunity the city has with the tech park and the city is lucky to have him. “His enthusiasm, approach and background are something special,” Renneisen said. “He’s very passionate about wanting to make a difference in his community.”

Local schools recognized for quality education practices From IDS reports

The Indiana Department of Education recognized two Monroe County schools Friday in relation to its Promising Practices program, which identifies high-quality education practices throughout the state, according to a press release. Bloomington High School South was chosen for its Plus Time, Pace, the extra help program, and Professional Learning Communities Teams programs, and Grandview Elementary School was recognized for

its implementation of STEM — Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics. Each Promising Practice is shared with Indiana educators as having a positive influence on Hoosier students, according to the release. In honor of the state’s bicentennial, the Department of Education is planning to recognize 200 Promising Practices by December. So far, 148 practices have been recognized. Practices are nominated for the recognition and then reviewed with input from experts, according to the

release. “As I travel across the state, I see schools and communities implementing innovative education practices to meet the diverse needs of Hoosier students,” Indiana Superintendent of Public Instruction Glenda Ritz said in the release. “High-quality instructional practices and support services are essential to providing every student with a high-quality education. I am excited to recognize these innovative practices today.” Cassie Heeke

New fellows program announced for returned Peace Corps volunteers From IDS reports

The Peace Corps and the IU School of Public Health announced the launch of the new Paul D. Coverdell Fellows Program that will provide graduate school scholarships to returned Peace Corps volunteers, according to a Peace Corps press release. All program fellows will complete internships in under-served American communities while completing their studies. “We are delighted to partner with IU School of Public Health-Bloomington to support our returned Volunteers as they pursue higher education and continue their commitment to service,” Peace Corps Director Carrie HesslerRadelet said in the release. “Communities are moved forward by the selflessness of Volunteers, and returned Peace Corps Volunteers have unique skills and experiences to offer their local communities.” The program will be available to students pursuing a master of public health degree, according to the release. Participants in the

program have the opportunity to study biostatistics, environmental health, physical activity or professional health education. “By recruiting returned Volunteer Fellows to the MPH program, we will enhance our graduate student body with a group of mature, experienced individuals who bring a global perspective to their coursework and the school,” said Justin Otten, the school’s director of global health affairs and returned Peace Corps Volunteer, in the release. Fellows will receive a scholarship of $5,000, a tuition discount of up to six credit hours for their Peace Corps service in the form of an independent study and an internship placement in a local community-focused organization. Through internships, fellows will apply what they learn in the classroom to a professional setting by working 10 to 12 hours per week at their internship, according to the release. By sharing their global perspective with the communities they serve, fellows help fulfill the Peace Corps’

Third Goal commitment to strengthen Americans’ understanding of the world and its people, according to the release. Once a semester, fellows will participate in a professional development seminar that will include a guest speaker and community service. Seminars will focus on a different public health topic. The School of Public Health said it hopes to be host to two or three fellows in the first three years of the partnership and double the number of students in future years, according to the release. The Fellows Program began in 1985 at Teachers College, Columbia University, and now works with 98 universities across the country. This is the sixth Peace Corps partnership program at IU. Existing partnerships include Master’s International programs, Fellows programs with the School of Public and Environmental Affairs, and Master’s International programs with the School of Education, according to the release.

THE COFFEE CHRONICLES

Self-driving cars are the ultimate cruise control

The importance of a name

Ford boldly predicts these cars will be made available in 2021.

ILLUSTRATION BY KATHRYN MEIER | IDS

The age of machine is approaching faster than ever before, and we don’t know how to feel about it. This past week, Ford claimed it will be mass producing self-driving cars by 2021. These cars will not be equipped with a gas pedal, a brake or a steering wheel, relying solely on computer navigation to get us to our destinations. The benefits of this exciting innovation are clear: easier urban transportation, a lower risk of distracted driving and all around ease of use for the average consumer. No more forcing ourselves to stay awake on crosscountry road trips. Businesses could have far more advanced, precise and expedited shipping schedules. Life could be blissfully easy. This bold promise by a top automotive company does, however, raise several questions.

Firstly, will the safe, reliable technology requisite for a mass-produced, selfdriving car be available by Ford’s deceptively-close 2021 target? In June, a Tesla Model S, in self-driving mode, failed to apply its breaks when a car took a left turn in front of it. The resulting crash killed the Tesla’s passenger. Even today, the apparent industry leader in self-driving technology has not been able to develop its technology to be completely safe for widespread use. Additionally, the federal government’s current regulations on these cutting edge vehicles is nowhere near comprehensive. If Ford completely removes the ability for the driver to take control, as is planned, the computer software will have to be able to make split-second decisions that could be the difference between life and death. The government will have to

closely regulate that decision-making capability. The second question we should ask ourselves is whether or not we want to lose the driving experience. For many, driving is therapeutic, a way to rid the mind of the complications of daily life. If this technology becomes so sophisticated to the point that a computer can drive better than we can, we may eventually be completely deprived of an experience many of us treasure but take for granted. In addition to taking an enjoyable experience away from individuals, self-driving cars could leave a staggering number of Americans without a job. Between Uber, taxi cabs, public transportation and delivery services, over 3.4 million people find themselves at work behind the wheel. If we eventually phase out human involvement in driving, we will be removing millions of dollars of salaries.

While innovation should not be stifled simply for job security or leisure, we shouldn’t allow questionable technology to replace so many workers before we can ensure consumers’ safety is not at risk. At the end of the day, we feel that self-driving cars are currently a mixed bag. The technology is promising, but Ford’s claim to offer a completely automated driving experience by 2021 seems rushed. Phasing out the human element of driving is most likely inevitable, if far down the road (no pun intended). Computers will eventually be able to operate vehicles much better than any fallible human being. The day will probably come when human operation of a vehicle is outlawed for these very safety concerns. But companies like Ford and Tesla need to understand that we aren’t there quite yet.

STEVE’S CONSERVATIVE CORNER

IU alumnus Curtis Hill is the best choice for Indiana attorney general Curtis Hill is running for Indiana attorney general on the Republican ticket. He currently serves as prosecuting attorney for Elkhart County, where he is in his fourth term. He graduated from Indiana University and later attended the Maurer School of Law at IU. When Hill was first elected, Elkhart County’s prosecuting attorney’s office only worked part time. Through hard work and perseverance, he transformed the office into a full-time position. In addition to this admirable feat, the fact that Hill has served four terms as prosecuting attorney shows Curtis Hill has a reputation for being a strong advocate for his community. His commitment to making Elkhart County a better place is demonstrated through his actions in office. Hill’s platform this cycle is centered on four main goals: controlling government overreach, protecting families from drug and violent crimes,

defending people from being victimized by fraud and inspiring children to lead meaningful lives. These goals are certainly realistic. Under the leadership of current Attorney General Greg Zoeller, privacy protections for Hoosiers have been expanded by the Do Not Call law and credit freezes for parents on behalf of their children to provide a defense against identity theft have been implemented. I believe that Curtis is the man to build on this positive change for Hoosiers. The beauty of Hill’s platform is that it’s perfectly viable. All four major platform points look to tackle major issues in Indiana. If Hill can make improvements in these fields, his tenure will be deemed a success. Hill’s agenda also includes combatting crime and drug abuse, specifically relating to meth and heroin. These two drugs are extremely problematic for Indiana. In 2015, Indiana law

enforcement seized 1,530 meth labs across the state, which goes to highlight the magnitude of the problem. Thousands of children grow up either within or close to these labs. Thus, two of Hill’s goals are closely connected, which makes them more achievable. By giving families added safety, along with inspiring Hoosier youth to participate in existing programs, Hill can make long-term improvements to the state, make an actual difference in the lives of individual Hoosiers and help cultivate the next generation of Hoosier leaders. Furthermore, Hill also wants to protect against government overreach. He acknowledges the importance the Second Amendment and wants to defend it — something I support. Hill will also stand up to overreaching executive orders, legislation and bureaucratic actions that disturb the lives

of Hoosiers, in violation of the Constitution. Hill was outspoken about his thoughts on President Barack Obama’s visit to his hometown of Elkhart, where he knocked the president’s policies and credited the economic development of the city to business leaders. He pledged to protect Indiana’s 10th Amendment rights. It’s not easy to come out against the president of the United States. This is one of an amalgamation of traits that Hill brings to the table as a candidate for attorney general. This is a man who is seriously committed to Hoosiers. I’m looking forward to watching him make positive changes in communities across the state. @staranyi@indiana.edu @TweetsByAranyi

Phonetically, my name is Nee-tha Put-wa-ri. It means good or sweet. The “th” sound is a lilting and reminds me of my home. However, since first grade, I changed my public name. When a girl asked me what my name was and couldn’t pronounce the soft “th” in my name, I instantly changed it. Thus, “Nee-da” was born. I originally changed the pronunciation of my name to fit in. My elementary school was predominantly white, and I already stuck out. Ironically enough, my parents carefully chose each of their children’s names so they would be easy to pronounce in the U.S. In first grade, I butchered that goal, and Needa has been a persona that has followed me since. And while I continually try to change it back to what it should be, I am always met with the blank stares and confusions that cause me to revert back to being the shy first grader just trying to please. This is more than just a story about my name, though. It’s a story about countless immigrants who were told their names were too foreign to fit in. When many eastern and southern Europeans came to the U.S. in the 20th century, many of them Americanized their names. It didn’t matter that their names had years of history. They were too hard to pronounce by American standards. While the idea is bad, what’s worse it the fact that this trend carries over into our schools and our personal relationships. Though my name is easy, every substitute teacher would pause over it, and most people asked if they could call me a nick-

name. That’s not a bad thing, and I don’t mind simplifying my name for kids. However, I think that most people college-aged or older should at least attempt to correctly pronounce foreign names not only because it creates familiarity for students, but also because it reaffirms their self-esteem. The National Association for Bilingual Education found that when a student’s name was pronounced incorrectly, it was almost as though a part of that student’s identity was erased. By doing this, we tell students that parts of their culture aren’t as important because they just don’t fit in well with American culture. Not calling students by their correct names in school inadvertently creates a system in which students feel they need to hide parts of themselves. Truthfully, in other countries, American names are mispronounced and considered odd, and we still hope they can learn to say them correctly. By learning how to pronounce names correctly, whatever their origin may be, we are all reaffirming the idea that every part of this person is worth something. My name is Neeta Patwari. The “t” is a “th”, and the first “a” in my last name is pronounced as a “u”. It means good, sweet or kind. It connects me to my Indian roots and my family.

Burqini ban is about more than swimwear Nice is the latest city in France to ban the popular Muslim women’s swimming garment, the burqini, from its beaches. The decision to do so was fueled by the idea that the burqini “is not compatible with the values of France and the Republic,” according to Prime Minister Manuel Valls. He said the burqinis represented the notion that women are impure and harlots. Others in France saw the burqini as a symbol of provocation of Islamic extremist views, believing that this women’s bathing suit could perhaps incite terror in a public place such as a beach. However, a burqini is not a call to arms. It’s a swimming garment that covers everything a traditional burqa would while leaving the face uncovered. However, violence was recently incited over a burqini in France. But the fights were not acts of terror. They broke out after a group of tourists on a beach insisted upon taking pictures of women sporting the bathing suits — exploiting them as some type of sight to see. By banning burqinis, the French government is doing exactly what those tourists did — they are treating Muslim women as if they are irregular to their environment. The bans imply that these women are not fixtures in the French community and that they never will be unless they conform to laws that push them out of their comfort zone. The burqini was invented for just that reason. Some Muslim women felt

uncomfortable wearing the traditionally revealing Western swimsuits to public beaches and pools where men were present. Beyond what this ruling says about Muslim women, it sets a precedent for the way women in France are treated in general. When Prime Minister Valls said clothing that paints women as “harlots” goes against French values, he seemed to also imply that women making their own decisions about what to wear goes against French values. Conservative swimwear is not just a concept for Muslim women. Other women and some men feel more comfortable wearing bathing suits that cover up more of their body. The style of swimsuit that covers arms and legs with a rash guard has always been a popular choice for those who are scuba diving, protecting themselves from the sun or simply wanting a more modest choice. There are a lot of things wrong with banning this style of swimming garment on public beaches in cities in France. A law like this limits women’s freedom of religious and cultural expression, paints a burqa or burqini as a symbol for terrorism, and polices what women put on their bodies. All of that should not be “compatible with the values” of any nation. @meickhof@gmail.com @maggie_eickhoff

THE SOUL PURPOSE

FOR WHAT IT’S WORTH

The mythology of adulthood

Journalism should serve to inform

When does one become an adult? Is it determined by some chronological benchmark, like an 18th birthday or some major life milestone like financial independence? Are you granted adulthood upon the mastery of a certain skill? Perhaps childhood fades away when you buy and cook your own food or manage to repair something in your home without calling your parents. It’s probably also important to schedule doctor’s appointments, file taxes and do laundry. And let’s not forget finding a decent job, if anyone happens to know where to get one of those. Really, what has to happen in a person’s life to give her that elusive air of omniscience, that ability to always have answers for important questions that seems to be the mark of a true adult? One possible answer: nothing. It could just be that you will never wake up and know for sure that you’ve made it to adulthood. Developmental psychology encourages us to recognize important growth happening in every stage of our lives. The idea that some magical combination of

experiences and achievements will ever undeniably distinguish us as adults seems implausible. But if there is one comparison people love to make, it is between what they are doing and what they should be doing. Many of us are so preoccupied with chasing the maturity and wisdom of adulthood that we don’t stop to consider whether the goal we seek is unrealistic or misleading. You will never receive a card from the government to carry in your wallet that officially labels you as an adult (unless you think that your driver’s license qualifies). You also will not be invited to an induction ceremony to the Certified Society of Actual Adults. So why is it that some of us seem so uncomfortable with adolescence? Or even for those who already identify as adults, why is there this feeling of lingering incompleteness? The obsession with graduating from youth and establishing maturity generates a lot of unnecessary anxiety, especially when life almost guarantees you an unending supply of perpetual change and new experiences.

You cannot fully leave behind the uncertainty of innocence because you cannot learn everything there is to know. The best thing to do, then, is to embrace the idea of life as a process of continuous evolution the best you can. Figure out how to get to the next best version of yourself while keeping in mind that there will never be a final draft. This should be good news, right? The fact that adulthood is not some concrete, easily definable achievement should make you a lot less afraid of failure. Unlike in the academic world in which we are all trying to build our lives, you need not fear that you will miss a deadline or have your application rejected. Maybe you aren’t quite an adult yet, and maybe you never will be. What matters, though, is that you are already a person. Why shouldn’t that be good enough? @mareklei@umail.iu.edu @foreverfloral97

In a 2013 interview, Ka — a staple in the Brooklyn underground hip-hop scene — was asked to address his more conventional day job as a firefighter. Although he may be one of world’s only rapping firemen, he discussed the topic candidly. On Sunday, the New York Post published a scathing front-page hit piece on Ka, born Kaseem Ryan, meant to expose him as an FDNY veteran that leads a double life as an “anti-cop rapper.” It’s baffling that the Post chose to run this story on its cover, given that it’s not news. Ryan himself addressed the issue nearly three years ago. The story, which has sparked considerable backlash from the public, is revealing. Outlets like the New York Post are more concerned with generating sensational headlines, even if it tarnishes the reputation of a faithful public servant in the process. Journalism should not aim to turn people against one another or even to entertain. Susan Edelman of the New York Post must have missed the memo, because her story achieves no great-

er purpose than these. Though his language has not exactly portrayed police in a positive light, saying that his lyrics condone violence against law enforcement is a gross overstatement. To reduce Ka to an “anticop rapper” is to ignore the realities of his environment, as well as that of thousands of other poor, black youths. Edelman’s assessment of Ryan’s music displays a lack of understanding of rap music as poetry. Hailing from Brooklyn’s Brownsville neighborhood, Ryan was born into a world in which poverty and crime are accepted as everyday realities. In “Conflicted,” he raps, “Momma told me be a good boy ... pops told me stay strapped son, be a body or catch one.” Lyrics like these do not glorify violence — they simply paint a stark, perhaps uncomfortable picture of reality. The New York Post also quotes him as rapping, “You named them hustlers, killers, fiends, ex-cons. I called them cousins, aunts, pops, moms.” It’s remarkable that Edelman is unable to — or chooses not

to — recognize that the line serves not to celebrate criminality, but rather to encourage listeners to view those who may be products of socioeconomic strife in a more human light. Fellow Brooklyn native El-P said on Twitter, “These are songs of pain and stress written somberly by someone who cares deeply about (New York City).” It is not written by the villain portrayed by the New York Post. Music as art aside, why does the New York Post use Ryan’s job as a firefighter to vilify him? After all, the man risks his life to save others’. I see this as a fact worthy of celebration, not ammo to denigrate his character. I was disappointed when I saw this story featured so prominently in one of the United States’ most wellknown news outlets. It shows that many who call themselves journalists are more concerned with readership and creating controversy than reporting news and celebrating worthy individuals. @dkilcull@indiana.edu @daniel_kilc_

LETTER TO THE EDITOR

Stick to the facts and think before you believe inaccurate political stories I didn’t buy into the story that was spun by the basement-dwelling conspiracy theorists or the Rush Limbaugh’s who thought Obama was a Muslim seeking to destroy the United States from within. I also didn’t believe those who claimed his birth certificate was illegitimate. However, those critical of Obama should not

be defined by the fringe like the Limbaugh’s and the Trump’s of the country. Just like how the Black Lives Matter movement shouldn’t be defined by the looters and the rioters. There is something to be said about the presidency of Barack Obama. Everything that Obama has done hasn’t been bad and Obama does not have control over every-

thing that happens in the country. However, the disastrous presidency that most Republicans would claim Obama has had pulls some weight. His presidency has had the slowest expansionary period since World War II, according to data. Race relations have also seemed to have worsened

since the Bush years, according to Gallup polls, which is evident in the events that happened in places like Milwaukee and Baltimore. With that being said, you can’t disregard all the claims made by Republicans against Hillary as being “sexist” and “misogynistic.” Her economic policies would likely keep close to

Don’t waste your extra second this year my husband and our fellow team members are going to try to set a world record for the shortest Cards Against Humanity game ever played in the history of mankind. I can see it now . . . we’re all passing around a bottle of champagne, debating whether they’ll wait the extra second for the ball to drop — I don’t think they will — and because having an extra second is such a magical moment, I’m sure

all of our white cards will match up near perfectly with the black cards, and it will be a joyous moment. Ok, so maybe that doesn’t sound so great to you. Then think about what you are going to do on December 31. Spend an extra second with someone special. Resolve to do something for someone who needs it. Resolve to do something for

LETTER TO THE EDITOR

National Geographic has recently brought to my attention that we have an extra second to spend this year. Being someone who wholeheartedly believes that we should not take a single second for granted, I want to impress upon the IU community how important it is to think about how we want to spend this extra, precious second of our time. As an example, myself,

Obama’s and not offer any more economic growth, the $15/hour minimum wage plan would suffocate jobs, the careless use of her email as Secretary of State alone should make her ineligible to be president, and so on. Sure, many people won’t vote for Clinton solely because she is a woman, but there are also going to be a lot of people who do vote

VOICE BEYOND YOUTH 13-year-old Bloomington resident wins top award at folk festival showcase By Sanya Ali siali@indiana.edu | @siali13

Anna Wrasse is just 13 years old, but she has already secured a top title as a young Indiana songwriter and musician. On Aug. 13, Anna received top honors at the Ferdinand Folk Festival singersongwriter showcase in Jasper, Indiana. The showcase was not Wrasse’s first experience with stage performance, as she has been playing shows and sharing original pieces for about two years. “I was satisfied with my performance that night,” Anna said. “It was an honor to win in my division. I’m ready to share my stories with this audience I have, and I love it when people seem eager to listen to the music.” As part of her victory, Anna will perform Sept. 17 on the Kyana Market stage at the Ferdinand Folk Festival. Anna also performed a 90-minute set at the Indiana State Fair in early August and released her first album, “At Night,” this summer. For that show, she played her original songs on the Main Street stage. Lisa Wrasse, Anna’s mother, said her daughter’s musical inclinations were apparent at an early age. “When Anna was a baby, she used to sing herself to sleep at night, and it just grew from there,” Wrasse said. “I am so happy to see Anna getting to express herself and do what she loves to do.” Anna, who has played piano since the age of six and guitar for almost three years, said some of the musicians to whom she listens are Taylor Swift, who she said had a great influence on her entrance into the musical world; Ed Sheeran; Lorde; and Halsey. Inspiration for lyrics stem from her

personal life, her thoughts and her feelings, Anna said. Topics covered in her songs include family, love and empowerment. “I want my music to tell a relatable story to other people, and I figure that there’s not really a better way to do that than by making a personal song,” Anna said. Stage fright during performances is not an issue, Anna said, though talking in front of the class can cause some nerves to surface. To calm this, Anna said she just takes deep breaths. Challenges Anna said she does face include making sure all her content is original and not unintentionally plagiarized and still putting together a satisfactory song. “As a musician, it’s hard to break away from the standard four-chord pattern, which is the basis for a typical pop song,” Anna said. In terms of advice for other singers and songwriters out there, Anna said passion and desire to tell stories are fundamental. “You have to want it enough to put yourself out there and do the hard work,” Anna said. “After that, just stay original, be yourself and do what feels right. All the rest should come with time.” Wrasse said her biggest advice to Anna is to keep writing, and Anna said she will keep playing shows and pursuing her musical passions. Her next show will be at 5 p.m. Sept. 3 at Bloomington’s Player’s Pub. She will also be the featured artist on WFHB-FM 91.3 for the station’s Local Live radio program at 9:30 p.m. Sept. 7. “My plan with my music over the next few years is to just keep writing music, keep making CDs and see what happens from there,” Anna said.

IU alumnus plays concert at People’s Park By Katie Chrisco kchrisco@ius.edu | @katiechrisco

Debby Shubert said she was unfamiliar with Jesse Lacy’s music. She is new to Bloomington and was on the city’s website when she discovered he was having a concert at People’s Park on Tuesday. So she decided to go and found herself enjoying the show. “It’s a beautiful day, and it’s a great place,” she said. Bloomington residents enjoyed the sound of Lacy’s voice accompanied by an acoustic guitar while sitting in shaded chairs and benches. The concert was part of Bloomington Parks and Recreation’s Performing Arts Summer Concert Series. The series offers events free and open to the public. Lacy reached out to become one

“He’s someone who engages well with an audience and is very talented, so that’s exactly what we’re looking for.” Greg Jacobs, Community Events Coordinator

of the artists for the series, said Greg Jacobs, Community Events Coordinator for Parks and Recreation. Jacobs said they try to book local bands for the series. While people might expect many singer-songwriters to be available locally, that’s not actually the case. “It’s surprising how little of that more folk-style music we have around here,” Jacobs said. “So Lacy

really fits a nice niche, and it’s also good for a college town because that’s an often sought-after style.” Lacy, a graduate of the IU Jacobs School of Music, said he doesn’t play in Bloomington too often, though he has upcoming shows in town in September. He took the time to meet the crowd and give listeners redeemable codes for his new single, “Pack of Dogs.” He also has an upcoming Midwest and East Coast tour that starts today and lasts through Oct. 2. Jacobs said what sets Lacy apart is his accessibility, which was evident through his collaboration with Cambell and his interactions with the crowd. “He’s someone who engages well with an audience and is very talented, so that’s exactly what we’re looking for.”

During the show, Lacy introduced fellow singer-songwriter Brentney Campbell to the crowd and took a break to mingle as she played some of her work. Lacy said the collaboration was pretty lastminute. “I like to bring people on when I can, so I have a database of other artists whose music I enjoy,” he said. “If it meshes well, I’ll invite them along to little gigs here and there.” Jacobs said there is a lot of interest in these concerts because they bring music to the community in a family-friendly way. “One of the things they do is they bring people outside to music, where typically (music is) only inside bars or theaters,” Jacobs said. “So they have become part of the fabric of the Bloomington summer.”

HUSS REPORT

Trust IU Coach Kevin Wilson and his quarterback pick It’s time to trust Kevin Wilson when it comes to quarterbacks. As the season approaches, the biggest question mark surrounding the Hoosiers is who is going to be under center in Miami when IU takes on Florida International on Sept. 1. Maybe it shouldn’t be. Whenever Wilson was a head coach or coordinator, his offenses were prolific. In the past 14 years, his offenses averaged less than 30 points per game only three times. Wilson succeeded with Sam Bradford at Oklahoma and Zak Kustok at Northwestern, quarterbacks with completely different styles. Bradford won the Heisman in 2008 and finished with 88 career touchdowns and 7,881 career passing yards. Kustok was a dualthreat quarterback who is still Northwestern’s career leader for quarterback rushing yards and touchdowns 15 years later. As a senior in 2001, when he ran for 580 yards and scored 11 times on the ground, he was also a finalist for the Johnny Unitas Golden Arm Award. Whomever Wilson chooses to start has earned his blessing — and that’s why you shouldn’t worry. Junior Richard Lagow, sophomore Danny Cameron or junior Zander Diamont could all start, and the Hoosier offense would be just fine. “The biggest thing I’ve seen is competition and consistency,” senior right tackle Dimitric Camiel said. “Those guys are competing, but at the same time, they are learning from each other and stepping up and embracing each other.” The quarterback battle hasn’t caused squabbling

inside the IU locker room. Instead, Wilson and others have said the three in competition are actually pushing each other to succeed. “They’ve all been working hard to learn our strengths at receiver,” sophomore wide receiver Luke Timian said. “They are getting comfortable as fall camp progressed and getting more confident. Confidence is the biggest thing.” All the quarterbacks are

getting more comfortable, but Lagow appears to have risen above the others. He will likely be the game one starter after receiving the bulk of the reps in fall camp. “He’s playing more confidently right now,” IU offensive coordinator Kevin Johns said. “He’s going to be a bigger, more physical presence. Those other guys are having great camps as well ... Lagow is playing at a different game,

just a different level.” Rolling with Lagow makes perfect sense. At 6-foot-6, he’s got the perfect quarterback frame to be a successful Big Ten quarterback — he just hasn’t proven it at this level yet. He came to IU from Cisco College in Texas and was listed as a top-ranked junior college pocket passing quarterback by ESPN. “He’s definitely coming into his own,” Timian said.

Will IU swimming and diving finally step out of the shadow? NCAA Champions. Granted, American football is not an Olympic sport. But basketball is, and there have been nine Hoosiers to play in the Olympics. Meanwhile, the men’s swimming and diving team has sent not nine, not 10, but 100 athletes to the Olympics. Beyond that, IU has sent 30 female swimmers and divers to the Games. On paper, the swimming and diving programs sound much more prestigious. Yet the numbers show IU football had 36,000 in attendance against Southern Illinois and more than 52,000 for the No. 1-ranked Ohio State game in 2015. Assembly Hall is much smaller, of course, but still averaged about 17,000 per game last year. I tried to find attendance numbers on how many people pack into the Counsilman Billingsley Aquatics Center to watch Olympians in their element, but IU Athletics doesn’t keep track of these things as they are not ticketed events. After sophomore Lilly King’s two gold-medal performances and very public slam of Russian swimmer

liant no matter who’s quarterback. With Wilson running the show and the bevy of talent at wide receiver and running back, the quarterback won’t have to be a superstar. The quarterback merely has to be serviceable. If he earns the nod from Wilson, he’s probably going to be a lot more than that.

24 SPORTS, 1 ZEGA

We’ve seen this before. A school has less popular sports excelling for decades on end, but they’re overshadowed by teams that are, well, not as successful. In high school, you have cross-country and track teams making it to state every year. You also have the bowling team winning state more than any other team in the school and still getting the, “We have a bowling team?” response. (Nope, I’m never letting that one go, Lake Central High School.) But my high school, and probably others, also had the problem IU has — a swimming and diving team that owns numerous records and accolades, but still seems to fall short in attention to sports like the once-in-a-lifetime football semi-state participants. Let’s look at the numbers: IU’s football team has never won a national championship. The men’s basketball team has five. The men’s swimming and diving team has six team national championships and 80 individual champions, and the women’s team has produced eight individual

“It’s been great to see Rich develop and he’s a great player.” While the other options are solid, it makes perfect sense to start Lagow if he fully grasped the offense during the spring and fall.

Hoosiers picked to finish at bottom of conference From IDS reports

Yulia Efimova, everyone suddenly cared about IU swimming and diving. Students said on Twitter they’d be attending many more swim meets to watch America’s No. 1 badass. But the IU swimming and diving season is still two months away. The Olympic flame will have been extinguished for a long time. Will these students be packing into Memorial Stadium with 40,000 other people when it’s inevitably snowing because that’s Indiana weather? Or, will they be following through on their vows to be swimming and diving’s new biggest fans? I would say time will tell and we’ll find out come October, but seeing as their events aren’t ticketed and no one keeps track, we won’t know for sure. It’d be great if people followed through on their plans and did go out to support the swimmers and divers, as well as IU’s other less popular teams. But plans fall through all the time, don’t they?

The Hoosiers will begin their 2016 volleyball season Friday facing low expectations from the Big Ten’s 14 head coaches. The conference’s annual preseason poll, voted on by the head coaches, slates IU 13th with only Rutgers below them. Nebraska, the 2015 NCAA champion, sits atop the rankings followed by NCAA semifinalist and defending conference champion Minnesota in second and Wisconsin in third. The Corn-

huskers were unanimously selected for the top spot by the coaches and boast three players on the Preseason AllBig Ten team. IU has zero. The lack of confidence in the Hoosiers possibly stems from last season’s 6-14 conference record, good for a 10th place tie with Northwestern. IU started the season well, but faltered as the season drew to a close and finished 16-16. The Hoosiers will need players to step up and replace the production lost by the graduations of Ame-

lia Anderson and Awele Nwaeze, the team’s top two point leaders in 2015. Outside Hitter Allison Hammond, who finished third in points and second in kills last year, returns for her senior year. IU starts the 2016 campaign with three matches in Bloomington against Northern Kentucky, Evansville and Marshall for the Indiana Invitational. The Hoosiers finished 8-5 at home last season.

WOMEN’S BASKETBALL

Moren adds 2 experienced graduate assistants to women’s basketball staff From IDS reports

IU Coach Teri Moren added two graduate assistants to the women’s basketball staff on Tuesday, according to a press release. Nine-year WNBA veteran Mistie Bass and former Maryland women’s basketball video intern Eddie Praley were both hired to provide support and experience, Moren said. “We are excited to have Mistie Bass and Eddie Praley join our program, who have both been involved with successful teams,” Moren said in the press release. “Mistie has competed at the highest level, playing in two Final Fours at Duke and winning a

WNBA Championship with the Phoenix Mercury. Eddie comes to us from the University of Maryland where he worked with their video and scouting. We are very fortunate to have both of them as Hoosiers.” Bass played 276 games in the WNBA, most recently with the Phoenix Mercury. With Phoenix, Bass won a WNBA Championship in 2014. She also made stops with the Houston Comets, Chicago Sky and Connecticut Sun and played overseas in France, Turkey and Israel. While at Duke, Bass averaged 9.9 points, 5.6 rebounds and 1.2 assists per game and helped the Blue Devils to 127

victories and two ACC titles. Prior to Praley’s year as a video intern for Maryland last season, he spent a year as a student manager for the Guilford women’s basketball team. He graduated from Guilford College in North Carolina in 2015. The two new additions to the coaching staff will join assistant coaches Rhet Wierzba, Janese Banks and Glenn Box as support for Moren. Moren was named Big Ten Coach of the Year last season as she led the Hoosiers to a 21-12 record, including a spotless 14-0 home mark at Assembly Hall. Jake Thomer

Professor shares ways to improve memory By Sanya Ali siali@indiana.edu | @siali13

The Venue Fine Art & Gifts made a temporary departure from the world of arts during the latest installment of the gallery’s weekly Tuesday evening lecture series. Members of the Bloomington community attended “The Art of Memory,” a talk by Lesa Huber, associate professor in the School of Public Health, to learn memory-fostering skills and discuss the nature of memory, especially in older age. Huber began with an anecdote about her own recent memory slip, which involved materials she was supposed to bring for her presentation Tuesday. “So last night I was thinking about this presentation, and I carefully put together all the things that I would need for today. I put them in a bag and put it in the refrigerator,” Huber said. “This morning, I thought to myself, ‘Put those things in the car right now.’” The audience laughed as Huber admitted she forgot

those items in the refrigerator. “It’s just what happens to us all the time,” Huber said. “We have the intention to remember, something happens, and there you are — you’ve forgotten the thing you were so sure you were going to remember.” At the beginning of the lecture, Huber said in order to begin the process of committing something to memory, one must focus on that information for 20 seconds. That will not ensure complete committal, but if repeated the same day, the next day and five days down the line, that bit of information has a better chance of sticking. Huber mixed into her presentation interactive activities for the purpose of memory practice. One game involved each attendee turning to a stranger and introducing him or herself, then creating a movie in their mind to remember their partner’s name. Another activity involved Venue curator Dave Colman, who was told to sit in the front of the room and pretend he was driving.

“I was assured I would not be humiliated during this presentation,” Colman said. Huber then constructed a narrative: Colman is driving to the store and decides he wants to make an egg sandwich. She placed a plastic container on his head and cracked an egg in it, placed slices of bread on his shoulders and mayonnaise at his feet. The goal of the exercise was to highlight how associating lists with something familiar, such as parts of the body, can help one remember the items in the list more effectively. While one does not need to attach these items to themselves, they can create those associations to commit them to memory. Allen Safianow, professor of history at IU-Kokomo, said he attended the talk after observing he and his colleagues have been experiencing memory troubles. “Everyone is afraid of Alzheimer’s because sometimes you can’t remember something — I know people in their 50s who have Alzheimer’s — so I think that there’s kind

of this fear we have. We say, ‘Well, forgetting things is normal,’ versus being a sign of dementia,” Safianow said. Safianow said the strategy he will probably employ was talking to himself to assure certain frequent tasks are complete. By incorporating verbal repetition and physical action, Huber said people can lessen the chance they will

panic later. “I find I can’t remember if I closed the garage door or if I locked my car,” Safianow said. “Sometimes I go back, especially if I’m going away for a few days.” One conclusion Huber drew during her lecture was the importance of personal well-being as a way to combat memory loss.

Habits such as eating healthy foods, exercising regularly and sleeping well were the most important. Additionally, staying in touch with family, friends and acquiantances; treating depression; and regular checkups; were ways to combat memory loss. “If you have a smart body, a healthy body, you’ll have a smarter mind,” Huber said.

CULTURE CORNER

Fans condemn Johnny Depp’s abused ex-wife, defend him instead Ever since Marlon Brando died in 2004, Hollywood has been in desperate need of a worthy successor to what many consider the infamously disobedient actor. Johnny Depp is, without a doubt, that successor. When you have been best friends with the likes of Brando and outlawed journalist Hunter S. Thompson, there’s no way you’re coming out of those relationships unflawed. So when Amber Heard, Depp’s wife, accused Depp of domestically abusing her earlier this year, some weren’t surprised. Heard alleged that Depp cut off the tip of one of his fingers after hitting a phone against the wall a month into

their marriage. After this, Depp allegedly dipped his bleeding finger into blue paint and used it to write on the mirror. During this whole time — while under the influence of alcohol and ecstasy, Heard alleged — Depp was accusing Heard of having an affair with actor Billy Bob Thornton. In May, Heard filed a restraining order against Depp after he allegedly threw an iPhone at her during a fight. The two divorced earlier this month. Depp has denied the abuse allegations. Were some people angry over this news? Of course. Was everyone? Far from it. In fact, the scariest part of this entire scandal, perhaps

even more so than the possible inhumanities inflicted upon Heard, is just how far Depp fans have been willing to go to defend their idol. Many Depp fans are speculating that Heard created a “Gone Girl” scenario by faking all of the abuse in order to blackmail Depp. Others have accused Heard of being heartless and a gold digger for filing for divorce with Depp shortly after the death of Depp’s mother. It’s really no wonder women are so unlikely to speak up whenever they have been abused. Can you think of an instance where society has unanimously come to their aid? Because I sure as hell can’t.

Female celebrities really aren’t at liberty to do anything except look pretty and serve their significant others unconditionally in the kingdom male celebrities have created. None of this is really new to us, though. Abuse of any kind has become so normalized by Hollywood entertainment that it is not only accepted, but fetishized by fans everywhere. Bonnie and Clyde, F. Scott and Zelda Fitzgerald, Harley Quinn and the Joker, and Anastasia Steele and Christian Grey are just a few examples of the countless amount of couples who are still romanticized by the media to this day.

Why is this okay? What is it about celebrities, particularly white, straight cis-gendered male celebrities, that make them impenetrable to justice? Answer – us. That’s right. It’s our fault as fans that terrors like these continue to happen among celebrities, relatively without punishment. I love celebrities just as much as anyone else, and I want to believe they can do no wrong, but I know that is hardly ever the case. For the past decade, we have seen a strange and disturbing amount of defense toward male abusers. Chris Brown, Bill Cosby and Dr. Luke still have a decent fol-

lowing among fans, despite their severe allegations against them. We have to remember that icons are not gods. While they may have talents and wealth we do not possess, than are no different than us. Therefore, they should be as entitled to judiciary action as we are. In an industry where abusers are glorified and victims are brutalized, change is necessary. If your fandom requires you to sympathize with a real-life misogynist, misandrist, racist or anything ending in “-phobe,” then perhaps you need a new fandom.

Confirm intuition with solid data, especially before posting. Fun, love and beauty are recurring themes over the next month, with Venus in spicy Scorpio. Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) — Today is a 7 — Put your love into your home over the next month with Venus in Scorpio. Be sensible about spending. Don’t take anyone for granted. You see creative possibilities everywhere.

about theft. In some cultures, an officer showing the bottom of his shoe to a citizen would be highly offensive. To bridge the cultural gap, IUPD has asked the Office of International Services, as well as several minority organizations, to assist in cross-cultural and diversity training for cadets and officers. Schrader said the officers were excited to appear in a three-minute international student safety video, which the OIS said it hopes to release by the end of the week. The video, which Johnson said is being translated into multiple languages, includes clips on safety rights and responsibilities and an introduction to IUPD and Bloomington Police Department. An endowment provided by the family of Yaolin Wang, an IU student who was murdered last fall, funded the video, as well as an international women’s conference and the printing of small cards with information geared toward international students. The cards, which were handed out at orientation events and continue to be distributed around campus by OIS, resulted from the work of what Schrader called a dream team.

ment, they are both moving in similar directions. IUPD Lt. Craig Munroe said they already requested body cameras for their officers, and both departments have moved to an almost entirely paperless system to streamline their data keeping. Both departments have a system in place for their officers to communicate in real time. BPD has its Street Smart System and IUPD has what it calls Interact. The Monroe County Sheriff ’s department is also moving toward a greater integration of technology, Chief Deputy Russell Brummett said. “They, too, all have body cameras,” he said. “They have added Tasers to their equipment and they, with the city, use the Spillman app to communicate,” Deputy Brummett said. Spillman is a mobile app that allows information sharing, which each law enforcement agency has stressed as one of their primary goals. While new technologies are incredibly helpful, they

for these guys and what depth does this team have to offer? One player looking to provide a spark for this team is sophomore midfielder Rees Wedderburn. He said it isn’t necessarily about replacing former players who are gone. “It’s not about replacing people. It’s about getting better overall,” Wedderburn said. “Femi was a great player for us, but now as a team we have to separate those goals between us and everyone must step up now. We can still be a better team without him, with all respect to Femi.” IU comes into the 2016 season with competition throughout the squad, and Coach Yeagley said he is pleased with where the team

IUPD Lt. Andy Stephenson hears international students share campus safety experiences at the international student outreach program “Coffee with a Cop” on Dec. 2, 2015, at the Indiana Memorial Union Starbucks. IUPD does not designate any particular officer as an international student liaison, but rather tries to train all officers to interact with students from different cultures.

Laury Flint of IUPD, Tracy James of Public Safety and Institutional Assurance, Stacee Williams of Student Legal Services and Angela Adams of the Office of the Vice President and General Counsel each contacted Schrader individually about serving the international student community, and they formed an initiative from their common goal. In a further effort to promote a positive relationship with international students, IUPD officers attended international student orientation is right now. “We’re healthy, and the guys have played well,” Yeagley said. “I think there are a lot of tough decisions for the staff, and you want that. We have a lot of options in our wide positions, and it’s an area where you’d like some depth with the way we like to press and dictate the game.” The possibilities are plentiful for Yeagley and his staff, and a few of those have been on display in the few exhibition matches. Belmont transfer and junior forward Rashad Hyacenth is a name that could be up front for the Hoosiers as he has scored a goal in each of the last two games. There are others like redshirt-senior midfielder Richard Ballard, Wedderburn and sophomore forward Austin Panchot, who

James and Flint are also working to strengthen department relations with the new leadership at the Neal-Marshall Black Culture Center to better understand concerns such as microagressions, Johnson said. “That’s incredibly valuable for us because that’s our opportunity to learn what’s on the mind of not just that particular community within the University, but a line of thought that we don’t know until we know,” Johnson said. could see time up front or flanking each other on the wings. There is the experience of the sophomores, juniors and seniors, but there is also a freshman class Yeagley said he really likes. “I like this group. I like their personality. They inherently fit in fantastic with the group,” Yeagley said. “Some might come quicker than others in terms of time on the field, but I see a lot of really good potential players within this group.” Players like forward Ian Black and defenders Spencer Glass and A.J. Palazzolo have already put their marks on exhibition matches thus far. Playing time is up in the air, but they are making good progression, Yeagley said. “They’ve only been with us a short time, so we might see

Johnson said the dialogue resulting from of his June phone calls spurred an initiative led by Sgt. Nick Luce and a group of female Muslim students. The initiative will train officers on social and justice issues as they pertain to Muslim women.

You can’t really take a day off because you’re required to bring 100 percent to practice,” Lillard said. “It’s nice that we have so many people we can play. I’m comfortable playing 18 deep, and it’s nice to have that luxury as a team.”

do involve more training and maintenance for officers. “Just trying to keep up with the technology, it’s more training that’s required,” Brummett said. And while these new technologies do allow law enforcement to be more efficient with lower manpower, they present their own problems, as all agencies noted. Maintenance for these technologies is a key factor and issue for IUPD, Lt. Munroe said. Recently, IUPD spent approximately $8,000 to update their portable radio systems. “It’s more effective on one side,” Lt. Munroe said. “It’s a two-edged sword.” The training required for learning these new systems can, and has already, eaten up some of the overtime for officers, Brummett said. Those issues of training and maintenance are weighed against the continuing need for real-time shareable data continues to push law enforcement to adapt and embrace technology. “We’ve really embraced technology,” Kellams said “Sharing that information is critical.”
